You have to hold the reset knob in then turn the ignition to the run position, now wait until the service light flashes and then let go of it. If it stops flashing and you let go it wont reset it. Thats assuming you car is mid 99 onwards, if its before that then you need to reset it with a computer and the car wont work with OBD2 interfaces.

I think the manual reset only works on Phase 2 models. The Phase 1s need a reset tool (electronics gubbins) which the dealers use to reset the light! Is yours a twin headlight or single? If single, its a phase 1. Sorry!
